WEBVTT 00:00.660 --> 00:07.960 Welcome to part two of the test I'm going to give you a document with the topic you have to answer. 00:08.550 --> 00:12.820 You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes. 00:12.870 --> 00:16.120 You have one minute to think about what you were going to say. 00:16.200 --> 00:19.170 You can make some notes to help you if you wish. 00:19.650 --> 00:21.260 You have one minute to prepare. 00:21.270 --> 00:22.650 Starting now 01:25.640 --> 01:27.290 OK time's up. 01:27.330 --> 01:29.260 Please stop Rick Perry. 01:29.340 --> 01:33.800 You know I have two minutes to speak starting now. 01:34.290 --> 01:45.930 Well I would definitely say that I haven't made very many short short travels or short journeys that 01:45.930 --> 01:52.080 I have disliked but but one that comes to mind would be going to work. 01:52.380 --> 02:00.890 Actually I don't live very far away from my work but I have to go through a part of the town I have 02:00.930 --> 02:05.580 to go through a part of the town that usually has a lot of traffic. 02:05.730 --> 02:10.760 So you know when I get up in the morning and of course have my breakfast and get ready to go. 02:11.040 --> 02:20.070 And I leave out from the house around 7:30 8:00 o'clock and I have to travel up Colorado Boulevard to 02:20.070 --> 02:24.060 get to where to get to where I have to work. 02:24.540 --> 02:31.670 And there's a certain part that I have to travel through where there's just a lot of traffic. 02:31.680 --> 02:37.050 I think they call it a bottleneck where all the people from different directions come into one point 02:37.510 --> 02:40.190 it is just unbearable sometimes. 02:40.350 --> 02:47.380 Really if if there was no traffic the journey might take maybe about 10 minutes. 02:47.640 --> 02:54.060 However because there's so much traffic on this short journey to work it takes about 45 minutes to get 02:54.060 --> 02:55.930 there which is horrible. 02:56.040 --> 03:01.110 I have to do this about five or six days a week at work or work on a Saturday. 03:01.140 --> 03:02.320 Saturday is not that bad. 03:02.320 --> 03:04.410 That was usually Monday through Friday. 03:04.410 --> 03:06.480 There's really really bad. 03:06.600 --> 03:14.820 The main reasons why I don't like it at all is because number one of course the traffic and the people 03:14.820 --> 03:17.650 are very very impatient when they're waiting in traffic. 03:17.960 --> 03:21.370 Everybody's angry and upset and blowing their horns. 03:21.540 --> 03:26.540 In addition to that while I'm sitting for 45 minutes cooped up or stuck in a car. 03:26.880 --> 03:29.460 And so that could be very very frustrating. 03:29.700 --> 03:35.660 So definitely traveler traveling to work is the short journey that I really dislike the most. 03:35.700 --> 03:36.230 OK. 03:36.240 --> 03:37.030 Please stop. 03:37.050 --> 03:40.100 We now move to part three. 03:40.140 --> 03:45.420 I have a few follow up questions related to the topic you just discussed. 03:45.420 --> 03:49.840 What is the impact of vehicles on people's lives. 03:50.370 --> 03:53.100 I think that there are some good good. 03:53.100 --> 04:02.310 There are some good some positive and negatives when it comes to vehicles in the lives of everyday citizens. 04:02.700 --> 04:11.970 Some of the negatives would be that people spent a lot of time cooped up in traffic and they very often 04:11.970 --> 04:18.320 just waste two or three hours of their day going back and forth from work staying in cars. 04:18.510 --> 04:27.750 Some of the positives about cars are that now you can travel from from one from one state or one city 04:27.750 --> 04:34.380 to another city or one province to another province and a number of hours whereas before you had cars 04:34.380 --> 04:38.470 that would take a really long time maybe a day or so. 04:38.610 --> 04:43.830 Who do you think people are further away from workplaces in the future. 04:45.500 --> 04:47.170 Wow that's really interesting. 04:47.180 --> 04:54.920 Sometimes I look at different cities and it seems like people are moving back into the back into the 04:54.920 --> 04:58.020 inner cities so they can be closer to work. 04:58.580 --> 05:06.710 But also with computers and technology it's becoming much easier for people to work from home. 05:06.750 --> 05:14.090 And so it's possible that somebody might live in Lisbon Portugal but they're doing work in New York 05:14.090 --> 05:19.290 City and it's all over the computer so I can see it happening yes. 05:19.570 --> 05:23.870 It needs to be done to help people travel less. 05:23.870 --> 05:31.730 I think that there one thing that government can do that most governments can do are to build more mass 05:31.730 --> 05:34.400 transportation in the cities. 05:34.400 --> 05:40.220 Another great idea is what I've seen them do in Amsterdam where they have closed off parts of the city 05:41.200 --> 05:46.800 to two cars so people have to walk more. 05:46.910 --> 05:55.550 So I think another thing to do in terms of helping people to travel less is to encourage and embrace 05:55.550 --> 06:00.830 computer technology because maybe people can do a lot of the work from their home or from their home 06:00.830 --> 06:01.330 office. 06:01.340 --> 06:06.260 And I have to travel into an office as 30 or 45 minutes away. 06:06.320 --> 06:07.160 Thank you. 06:07.160 --> 06:08.940 That will conclude part three. 06:08.960 --> 06:10.200 Thank you.
